The release of 'Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba - To the Hashira Training' has garnered mixed reviews from critics, with some suggesting the movie takes the saga in an exciting new direction, while others critique it for offering little new content for longtime fans and being a poor entry point for newcomers. Despite the mixed critical reception, the movie, described as a visual delight, opened to significant commercial success in the U.S., earning an estimated $5.5 million on its opening day, including preview screenings, and was available in Japanese with English subtitles and English dubbed versions. However, it was outperformed by 'One Love,' which drew nearly $2 million more, placing 'Demon Slayer' second in the box office rankings. The movie opened nationwide Friday.
